Any thoughts on the following?
An organisation holds personal data (Name and Address) for a statutory purpose and now wants to append telephone numbers to this data by arranging for a data supplier to match and append this information so that it can contact the individuals by phone. The organisation when collecting the personal data initially allowed data subjects the option of supplying their telephone number, but this was not a mandatory field.
Are there any issues with this and if so what would the organisation/data supplier need to do in order to comply with the relevant legislation?
Thanks for your help with this. Looking for thoughts on this for a paper I am doing.
Thanks
Cathy
